Definitions
- the present invention relates to an energy-saving thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator which can perform a vapor compression refrigerating cycle (forced circulation cycle of refrigerant) in summer as a backup refrigerating cycle of the thermo-siphon chilling cycle (natural circulation cycle of refrigerant).
- the air conditioning system generally used for air conditioning of a building is composed of, as shown in FIG. 2 , an outdoor heat exchanger 102 functioning as a condenser, a receiver 108 , an indoor heat exchanger 101 functioning as an evaporator, a compressor 110 , and an expansion valve 104 .
- the system performs a vapor compression refrigerating cycle which is an energy consuming refrigerating cycle.
- a natural refrigerant-circulation system is used as an energy-saving air conditioning system.
- Said natural refrigerant-circulation system utilizes the phase-change of the refrigerant to effect natural circulation of the refrigerant based on the thermo-siphon principle caused by the effect of temperature difference of the refrigerant. By the system, energy saving and reduction of running cost are achieved.
- the first embodiment of said proposal is, as shown in FIG. 3 , composed of an indoor heat exchanger 101 , an outdoor heat exchanger 102 , and a refrigerant piping 103 .

- the outdoor heat exchanger 102 is provided in the outside of the separating wall A for changing heat with the outside air and located at the position higher than that of the indoor heat exchanger 101 .
- the refrigerant piping 103 connects the indoor heat exchanger and outdoor heat exchanger so that the low boiling point refrigerant (HCFC-22, HFC-23) in the system circulates through the indoor heat exchanger 101 and outdoor heat exchanger 102 .
- the low boiling point refrigerant enclosed in the refrigerant piping is heated in the indoor heat exchanger 101 by the heat of the air in the room to be boiled and evaporated.
- the evaporated low boiling point refrigerant gas flows upward in the refrigerant pipe 103 and cools and dehumidifies the air passing through the indoor heat exchanger 101 .
- the low boiling point refrigerant gas flew upward in said refrigerant piping is introduced into the outdoor heat exchanger 102 and thereby cooled by the outside air to be condensed to a liquid state.
- the liquefied low boiling point refrigerant flows downward in the refrigerant piping by the effect of gravity to be again returned to the indoor heat exchanger 101 to be evaporated.
- the evaporation condensing cycle is reiterated.
- the characteristic of the proposed natural refrigerant-circulation chilling and dehumidifying apparatus is determined by the difference in specific gravity of the low boiling point refrigerant caused by the phase-change thereof, difference in height of the liquid column of the low boiling point refrigerant, refrigerant piping system, the characteristics of the indoor heat exchanger and outdoor heat exchanger.
- the second embodiment of the natural circulation chilling and dehumidifying apparatus comprises an indoor heat exchanger 101 , an outdoor heat exchanger 102 , a refrigerant piping 103 , an expansion valve 104 , and a separate forced refrigerant-circulation refrigerating apparatus (a vapor compression refrigerating apparatus).

- Reference symbol A denotes a wall, the left side thereof being a room and the right side thereof being the outside.
- said vapor compression refrigerating apparatus 105 is operated only when the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the room becomes small and cooling ability is reduced, in order to backup the heat exchanging ability of the outdoor heat exchanger 102 .
- the third embodiment of the natural refrigerant-circulation chilling and dehumidifying apparatus consists of a vapor compression refrigerating/heat pumping apparatus 106 of prior art and the natural refrigerant-circulation chilling and dehumidifying apparatus 107 shown in FIG. 3 .
- Said vapor compression refrigerating and heat pump apparatus 106 works on a conventional energy-consuming vapor compression refrigerating cycle and comprises an indoor heat exchanger 160 , an outdoor heat exchanger 161 , a compressor 162 , an expansion valve 163 , and a refrigerant piping 164 connecting them in a loop.
- Reference symbol A denotes a wall, the left side thereof being a room and the right side thereof being the outside.
- the compressor 162 is for compressing the low boiling point refrigerant filled in the system.
- the refrigerating cycle and heat pump cycle can be switched to each other according to whether the compressed refrigerant gas is introduced to the outdoor heat exchanger 161 or to the indoor heat exchanger 160 .
- the vapor compression refrigerating/heat pumping apparatus 106 is an air conditioning apparatus provided besides the natural refrigerant-circulation chilling and dehumidifying apparatus 107 .
- the natural circulation of the refrigerant occurs sufficiently, energy-saving operation with the vapor compression refrigerating cycle operation stopped can be performed, or the heat pumping cycle operation of the vapor compression cycle to warm the room can be performed while dehumidifying by the operation of the natural refrigerant-circulation cycle.
- the two systems work independently.
- the second and third embodiments can accommodate enough to the environment, however, two sets of indoor heat exchangers, outdoor heat exchangers, and refrigerant pipe lines are necessary to be provided, and there is a problem of the high cost of equipment.
- one of the two systems is the equipment for backing-up when outside temperature is high, so the utilization factor of the equipment is low and accordingly the investment efficiency is low.
- the present invention is made in light of the problems of the prior art mentioned above, and the object is to provide a thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator for use in cold districts by joining a compressor, bypass piping, and switching valves to a natural refrigerant-circulation refrigerating system to enable the thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator to perform a vapor compression refrigerating cycle instead of a natural refrigerant-circulation cycle utilizing a part of the piping for the natural refrigerant-circulation cycle when outside temperature is high in summer.
- thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator for use in cold districts comprising an outdoor heat exchanger functioning as a condenser, an indoor heat exchanger functioning as an evaporator located at a position lower than that of said outdoor heat exchanger, a compressor, and an expansion valve, characterized in that
- thermo-siphon cycle i.e. a natural refrigerant-circulation cycle
- thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator can accommodate to both high and low outside air temperatures.
- the above invention is constituted such that, a compressor is joined to the conventional natural refrigerant-circulation refrigerating system comprising an outdoor heat exchanger functioning as a condenser, an indoor heat exchanger functioning as an evaporator and being located in a position lower than that of the outdoor heat exchanger, and refrigerant piping, and the compressor is connected to the outdoor heat exchanger and indoor heat exchanger to make it possible to perform vapor compression cycle by switching the path of refrigerant flow.
- the refrigerant-flow path is switched to perform a vapor compression refrigerating cycle.
- said indoor heat exchanger is of a flooded type evaporator, an evaporation pressure adjusting valve is provided downstream from the evaporator, and said outdoor heat exchanger is located so that the refrigerant outlet thereof is positioned higher than the liquid level of said flooded type evaporator.
- the above invention defines that the indoor heat exchanger used for the thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator is a flooded type evaporator, and the evaporation pressure adjusting valve is provided downstream from the evaporator in order to accommodate to the change in outside air temperature.
- the outdoor heat exchanger is positioned so that the condensed refrigerant liquid level therein is higher than the liquid level in the flooded type evaporator to enable natural circulation of the refrigerant.
- said outdoor heat exchanger is of a air-cooled type condenser provided with a cooling fan of which the rotation speed is controlled by means of an inverter.
- the outdoor heat exchanger used in the thermo-siphon chiller refrigerator is preferable to be an air-cooled condenser with a cooling fan of which the rotation speed can be controlled by an inverter motor in order to secure proper cooling ability of the condenser regardless of the change in outside air temperature.
- an evaporation pressure adjusting valve is provided downstream from the indoor heat exchanger to adjust evaporation pressure in accordance with the variation of outside air temperature.
- the natural circulation passage of refrigerant consists of a refrigerant vapor passage of larger diameter (thick pipe) and a refrigerant liquid passage of smaller diameter (thin pipe)
- the forced circulation passage of refrigerant consists of a refrigerant vapor passage mainly consisting of said smaller diameter passage and a refrigerant liquid passage mainly consisting of said larger diameter passage, and the passages are combined by means of bypass passages.
- refrigerant gas when operated by a natural refrigerant-circulation cycle, refrigerant gas flows through the thick pipe (larger diameter passage) and refrigerant liquid flows through the thin pipe (smaller diameter passage) in order to eliminate the influence of flow resistance in the natural refrigerant-circulation, and when operated by a vapor compression cycle (forced refrigerant-circulation cycle), refrigerant gas flows mainly through the thin pipe and refrigerant liquid flows mainly through the thick pipe. Therefore, lubricating oil accompanies the refrigerant gas flowing with large velocity in the thin pipe toward the condenser when the vapor compression refrigerating cycle is performed, and the lubricating oil can be returned to the compressor to ensure smooth operation of the compressor.
- the passages are connected by bypass passages.
